Football: European club pen no-strings-attached offer to Usain Bolt

The heat has been turned up on the Central Coast Mariners to sign Usain Bolt with reports a European club have entered the race with a “no-strings-attached” offer for the football aspirant.

The Daily Telegraph reports, the world’s fastest man has been made a formal two-year offer to join the “top-flight frontrunner” with the possibility of playing in the team’s upcoming cup final.

New investors with strong aspirations have joined the club as they vie for European Champions League qualification.

It is believed the Jamaican received the in-writing approach over the weekend following his commendable brace in Firday Night’s clash against Macarthur South West United, according to the Daily Telegraph.

This new deal would not require a trial period which would see the track and field superstar move straight into the first-string roster.

The offer turns the heat up on the Central Coast Mariners and the FFA as the organisations deliberate over who will foot the majority of Bolt’s prospective $3 million A-League contract.

Bolt reignited his bid for that contract on Friday with his clinical first goal for the Mariners.

Following his late substitution, the striker celebrated his personal achievement but remained focused on his future.

“I think I made some slight mistakes but it’s my first real game with the first team. I’m just happy I got a chance and I’m proud of myself,” he said.

“It was a big deal, scoring a goal in my first real match is a big deal. To score two goals, it’s a good feeling, it’s what I’m working towards, I try to improve myself, I try to get better and I’m doing that.”
